In the Spring, we have these yellow wildflowers growing up all over the yard at our rural cabin property in Central TX. We have such sandy soil soil there, you can just pull them up by hand. They have shallow roots. The butterflies like it a lot. Here are two pics below. The distance shot is to show how big the base/leaves get throughout the season; the closer one shows the bloom better. With my research efforts on-line, we think it is wild mustard cabbage. What do you folks think it is? The butterflies like it a lot.

Looks more like a groundsel/ragwort (Packera sp)?. there are many species with various leaves form.
or at least an asteraceae member forsure

WOW! There ARE many species. After much searching, I think I have Texas Groundsel in my cabin yard. https://foragefax.tamu.edu/201.... Leaf is right shape; bloom clusters look the same. If so, it's a good thing it's not in the pasture (yet), as it appears to be toxic to livestock (we lease our pasture for Brangus grazing). When it comes up in the fenced cabin yard, I just pull it up, because the sandy soil releases the roots with a light tug. I hate to, because I think it's pretty. But if it ever spreads to the pasture, we'll have to treat the pasture with a targeted herbicide to get rid of it.

I have a small amount of it in my pastures. Neither the cows nor horses eat it. As long as there is plenty of other forage it is pretty undesirable.

Thanks for the reply @porkpal. I'll not worry so much about it. We have 10 Brangus and 1 horse grazing there. But like I said, it's not in the pasture as yet....just the cabin front and side yard. I'll just keep pulling it out in there then, to insure it doesn't get to the pasture.
